Burpee has closed its four retail outlets to focus on catalog and Internet
sales.

I have read considerable discussion about Brandwine tomatoes;
they have a new cultivar, a hybrid bred from Brandywine,
named Brandyboy. It has the same flavor as its parent, but
is supposed to produce far more fruits.

I saw that somewhere else and bought a packet, despite already having my
seed for this year. I can always squeeze in one more plant :-).
